Click on the link for a PDF copy of the Birth and Baptismal Record of Maria Dańko. The record states that:

  • Maria Dańko was born on 27 Mar 1822, in house number 140 in Nienadowa, a girl legitimately born to a Catholic family and delivered by the midwife Zofia Grzegorzczycka
  • She was baptized on the same day by Szymon Musiewicz in the church in Dubiecko
  • Her parents were Wojciech Dańko, a farmer, and Rozalia, daughter of Józef Chroscicki
  • Her Godparents (Sponsors) were Kazimierz Chroscicki, a farmer, and Barbara Kazinkowa, the wife of a farmer

This record provides not only the names of Maria’s parents, but it also provides the name of Rozalia’s father – Józef.

This record is also one of the earliest Birth and Baptismal Records to list the midwife – Zofia Grzegorzczycka.

The family is still residing in house number 140, the same residence reported for the birthplace of Wojciech’s two previous children.
